    joe is talking to des lynam about his past,his present etc.

    he's made a few interesting comments about bernard and how if he's that great a defensive fighter why does his face look so squashed etc.
    calling hopkins an idiot and a character.

    saying marvin hagler srl and rjj were his favorite fighters growing up.

    how he feels that if he was given six months he could win a title a heavyweight,not off klitscho though.

    very interesting stuff,nice calm interview.

    talks about his trouble gaining exposure in the UK due to him being welsh,how he couldnt get fights then he got his break against eubank and how important it was to him.

    speaks of his desire to cement a legacy after becoming undisputed at smw,talks of how he's had to adapt with his fragile hands,how he got hurt a few times by kessler and had to step back.

    speaking of wanting a clean fight with hopkins if possible,and how he's going to try and use his speed to fight in and out of hopkins rather than being drawn into a slugfest and how he cant sit on his punches anymore and how he is apprehensive in throwing the overhand left.

    That interview was almost as cringeworthy as when Steve Ryder interviews Lewis Hamilton.

    I wasn't having a dig at Joe, I was just saying it was a cringeworthy interview.
